  • Direct messaging with every family, to email or directly to their phone
  • Communicate to groups or individual parents
  • Full message history for every family, in one place
  • Connect your phone and keep communication going via text messages without revealing your cell phone number

What program operators say

“BeAKid has all of my parents' reviews on a timeline so I can see exactly what my customers' experience is.”

JLJason L. · camp program director

“Registration for parents is very easy, and once they create an account, all communication and information lives in the parent portal. For me as an administrator, I love being able to offer different payment options.”

LPLauren P. · youth program manager

“The process of adding our camps by week was simple. And parents found enrollment easy too. I highly recommend this product; it's reliable and responsive!”

CMChris M. · seasonal camp organizer

Frequently asked questions

Do I need all of these features to get started?

No. Most programs start with registration and payments, then turn on memberships, messaging and the widget as they go. Everything is included in Core except the Growth extras listed on the pricing page.

Does BeAKid replace my current registration system, or does it work alongside it?

BeAKid is built to be your primary operational platform, replacing separate registration tools, payment systems, and communication tools with one integrated system. Most programs run BeAKid alongside their current system through one enrollment cycle before making a full transition.

How long does setup take?

A single-location program is usually live within a week: import families, build your programs, publish your listing or widget. We do the migration with you on the onboarding call.

Is BeAKid suitable for both small programs and large multi-location organizations?

Yes. BeAKid serves programs of every size, from solo instructors running a single class to franchise brands managing dozens of locations.

Is there a contract or long-term commitment required?

No contracts. Month to month.
